Scholars & Skeet was a private event held at the Jacksonville Clay and Target Sports complex. Student recipients and our scholarship investors were greeted by members of the five-time national champion JU Sporting Clays, Skeet and Trap Team who spent the evening with us providing one-on-one instruction for newcomers or those wishing to perfect their shot! Guests enjoyed a wide range of activities from competing in our “Best Shot Competition”, relaxing by the fire pit indulging in s’mores, or partaking in a game of corn hole! Program remarks were made by President Tim Cost ’81 and OCEARCH Founder and JU Explorer In-Residence, Chris Fischer. Coach David Dobson of the Shooting Team honored our “Best Shot Competition” winners, Jennifer Glock and Cassidy Baker ’19. Both winners had impressive shots for newcomers to the sport! Jennifer Glock, scholarship donor to six Jennifer Glock Fellows, hit her first clay on her first attempt. Senior, and the recipient of the David and Iris Julian Scholarship, Cassidy Baker won the student award for hitting three in a row!
We had a blast!
